United States Eighth Circuit

Upon notification that defendant could not adequately educate the severely handicapped child in question, plaintiff became responsible for her education and was required to provide a representative at her individualized education program planning meeting. District court did not err in holding plaintiff liable for the costs of the student's tuition at an out-of-state residential program.
